I find that a very very good idea. This will help in lessening
ftpmaster's work load, and will thus not only speed up the stable
point releases, but also other things that fall into ftpmaster's
domain since the work load of supporting the stable release team is
not any more necessary.

Amen.

Is there some reason for not having at least one SRM team member in
the ftpmaster team?

I have recently directly seen that SRM team work being slowed down by
needed actions from the ftpmasters and I can certify that the requests
I have witnessed from the SRM team to the ftpmasters seem to have
fallen to something that looks like a black hole.

I'm not in ftpmaster-bashing mode herefirst because "bashing" is a
word that I dislike a lot and second because I think that difficulties
like this one usually have a perfectly normal reason.

In the general long-term tendency we currently have for improving all
critical teams work, I think that there's something that should be
done here.

Delegating a part of the ftpmaster power to the SRM team and also
probably the security team seems to be seomthing that could at least
temporarily solve such a problem.waiting for possibly "cleaner"
solutions for the long term.
